Chapter 299 I've Got A Special Way To Mediate

"That's enough," Susan said firmly as she smiled, "I'm Shelby, Susan Shelby. I'll never be Rosie. You're welcome to continue staying here if you'd like to see Ningcheng, Mr. Wright, and Anna. Julian can arrange a private jet for you as well if you prefer to return to Skyking City.”

Susan had an instinct that her life was going to change if she allowed Oliver and Anna to continue staying here.

However, Jacob did not like such changes so she didn't want it as well.

"Are you sure that you aren’t going to take my suggestion into consideration, Ms. Shelby?" Oliver asked helplessly.

He could never find out although he was just one step away from the truth.

'What made Susan so stubborn huh?

'Why was taking the test such a big deal? Wouldn't it b e fine even if she wasn’t Rosie?

'What if she was indeed Rosie. Wouldn't she be the eldest lady in the Wright family?

'Who would give up the opportunity to be the daughter of the Wright family in Canada?’

However, she gave up.

"I wouldn’t agree to that." Susan shook her head.

Oliver could only give up as he saw the stubbornness i n her eyes.

However, it was almost impossible for him to leave empty handed.

Therefore, Oliver replied, “Oh, that's kind of you, I'm afraid we need to stay for a little longer."

Now, it was not that nice for Susan to reject them.

After all, Oliver had a prestigious status and Anna had just been wronged earlier. It'd be too harsh if they insisted for them to leave.

In the end, Susan agreed to them to stay. Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

Jacob looked tense as he stared at Oliver coldly.

He couldn’t believe that Oliver insisted on staying.

No way! He mustn't allow him to take Susie away.

However, Oliver glimpsed at Jacob with a hidden smile as he tried to tease him.

Unexpectedly, the two men had now turned into enemies.

Susan helplessly hinted to Julian so he could help ease the situation.

"Let's get ready for dinner, shall we?" Julian said right away.

'Dinner...

'What? Dinner?' Susan felt uneasy as she took a glimpse of the clock on the wall. It was 3 o'clock in the afternoon!

"Oh, that's great. I was just thinking about having some Quebec cuisine," Oliver agreed. He then continued, "After all, Rosie has been having Quebec cuisine from a young age." 1

"Haha!" Jacob chuckled.

Oliver remained and smiled silently.

The ambiance was extremely awkward.

Helpless and cluelessly, Anna didn't say much as well.

However, Julian calmly said, "I'll make the reservation."

He knew that Mama Jean wouldn't want to prepare dinner at this hour so his only option was to order the food from the restaurant.

Half an hour later, the food was delivered to their doorstep. It was a table full of dishes.

"Wow! It looks delicious! Honestly, I'm really hungry." Anna cheered intentionally.

'Hmmm, I've got to soothe the awkwardness anyway.'

Swiftly, the two men who were staring at each other shifted their gaze as they heard Anna cheering.

"Alright, let's have some food then. I haven't had anything since I was rushing from Skyking City.

You’re so thoughtful, Julian.” Oliver said with a smile a s he stood up.

"Thank you." Julian said with a steady expression.

However, Susan rolled her eyes as she knew that Julian was pretending! She was confident that Julian certainly didn't think Oliver had a long journey. Instead, his intention was to calm the awkward situation. 1

Nevertheless, they had their dinner at 3.30pm.

Oliver and Anna did seem to be starved as they began eating elegantly as soon as they took their seat.

Meanwhile, the remaining three were looking at them.

Susan, on the other hand, suddenly felt hungry while looking at them eating. As soon as Susan felt the hint o f hunger, a pair of cutlery was placed on her plate along with a bunch of asparagus.

Jacob came in from the right while Julian went in from the right as both of them placed some asparagus on her plate. Susan smiled involuntarily. "Both of you know my preference too well.”

"Have some more." Jacob said gently.

"Sure!” Susan replied as she was about to start her feast.

Oliver said, "Oh, do you like asparagus, Ms. Shelby? My mom likes it too." 'Uhmmm, it's a little awkward.' Susan’s cutlery hung midair as she hesitated to put them down or to begin eating.

Jacob snorted, "How's such a small similarity a big deal? Do you have to make a fuss of it? Shouldn't your mouth be munching since you have so much food there?”

Oliver smiled and answered, "It just crept into my mind.”

"Actually, I don’t really like asparagus." Susan awkwardly put her cutlery down and took a fish fillet instead.

"Oh! My dad loved fish!” Oliver said with sparkling eyes.

Susan was speechless.

'Fine, I'll have something else.

'What about shrimp? It should be fine, right?'

"Oh no, shrimp is my favourite! We have the same taste, Susie!" Anna said.

Susan was speechless.

‘Fine, I should just stop eating.'

"Don’t bother about them. Dig in, Susie.” Jacob continued as he took everything Susie liked and placed on her plate, "There are so many people out there who share the same favourite food. Those two are the only one who talk about it all the time."

"Hey!" Anna put down her cutlery and continued, " That's too much, Jacob. Sharing the same favourite food is not the only coincidence, why do you feel so reluctant on letting Susan return to her original family?"

"Return to her original family?" Jacob chuckled and continued, "Susie shares the same family name as me. Which family she should return to?!"

"Oh well, what’s the big deal if Susie has her DNA examined if that's what you think? What are you afraid of?" Oliver asked.

"You...” Jacob became more furious.

"Clink!"

Susan put down her cutlery and emphasized, a little upset, "Hey Mr. Wright and Anna, I think it's better if you guys don't bring this up again. I'm afraid I'll need t o send you off if this happens again."

Frankly speaking, this combo of Wrights was nothing compared to her brother even if she really was one of them.

Jacob has given up all his assets for her without hesitation.

In fact, she'd be more than willing to fight with others for the sake of her brother.

Their sibling love was non-judgemental. Nobody could understand it but they didn't need anybody to understand them anyway.

Oliver and Anna had no choice but to stop talking about it once Susan was upset.

Because of the incident, the meal wasn't a happy one.

Suddenly, Oliver wanted to have a stroll at Ningcheng City.

"Do you need a tour guide? I can get someone to bring you around." Julian asked.

"I'm good, don't worry about it," Oliver answered with a smile.

Julian did not continue pushing but nodded in reply.

"I'm coming along, brother," Anna said after gazing at them.
